Can't Get It...
Right Today
Joe Purdy
I just can't seem to get it right today.
I just can't seem to get it right today.
I just can't seem to get it right today,
I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up.
It's nearly been a year since he's been gone,
And you still sing his goodbye songs.
Goodness knows she should move on
But she just can't let him go
No, she just can't let him go
Sorry if I made you want to cry.
Sorry if I made you want to cry.
You should know, I never meant to hide.
I just hate bringing you down
Oh, I just hate bringing you down.
I just can't seem to get it right today.
I just can't seem to get it right today.
I just can't seem to get it right today,
I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up.
And I dropped my paintbrush in the dirt,
Still don't know how much that hurt.
I cut my hand and wait for it to work
I just couldn't bring him back.
No, I just couldn't bring him back.
I just can't seem to get it right today.
Oh, I just can't seem to get it right today.
I just can't seem to get it right today,
I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up.
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up, oh Lord.
I said, I guess I'm gonna give up, oh Lord.
I said, I guess I'm gonna give up.

The Prayer
Andrea Bocelli and Josh Groban
I pray you'll be our eyes,
and watch us where we go
And help us to be wise,
in times when we don't know
Let this be our prayer,
when we lose our way
Lead us to the place,
guide us with your grace
To a place where we'll be safe.
La luce che tu dai
I pray we'll find your light
Nel cuore resterà
And hold it in our hearts
A ricordarci che
When stars go out each night
L'eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera
Let this be our prayer
Quanta fede c'è
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
Sognamo un mondo senza più violenza
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace e di fraternità
La forza che ci dia
We ask that life be kind
È il desiderio che
And watch us from above
Ognuno trovi amor
We hope each soul will find
Intorno e dentro a sè
Another soul to love
Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer
Just like every child
Just like every child
Need to find a place,
guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
E la fede che
Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salverà
..è il momento...
di schiodare....
...se potessi controllare il tempo
se potessi dare una direzione al vento.....
Scirocco d'Africa
Pino Daniele
A me la musica ha cambiato la vita
e la vita ha cambiato me
quando faccio una dormita sogno l'Africa
sogno te ho bisogno di sentire
il sole sulla pelle io per conquistarti
avrei rubato anche le stelle
Prova con un mazzo di
prova con un mazzo di rose
vedrai che cambieranno si
vedrai che cambieranno le cose.
Prova con un mazzo di
prova con un mazzo di rose
vedrai che cambieranno si
vedrai che cambieranno le cose
E mi parla di te mi parla di te
questo vento caldo dell'Africa Africa
Se tu mi cercherai
E sto pensando a te sto pensando a te
in questa sera magica, magica
Forse sarò ancora qui
E mi parla di te mi parla di te
questo vento caldo dell'Africa Africa
Se tu mi cercherai
E sto pensando a te sto pensando a te
in questa sera magica, magica
Forse sarò ancora qui.
A me la musica ha cambiato la vita
e quelli come me hanno un'anima gemella
ed io ho te, e ti chiederò perdono
mentre mi porti il caffè
cercherò la tua mano per conquistarti ancora
Prova con un mazzo di
Prova con un mazzo di rose
vedrai che cambieranno si
vedrai che cambieranno le cose
Prova con un mazzo di
prova con un mazzo di rose
vedraii che cambieranno si
vedrai che cambieranno le cose
E mi parla di te mi parla di te
questo vento caldo dell'Africa Africa
se tu mi cercherai
E sto pensando a te sto pensando a te
in questa sera magica, magica
Forse sarò ancora quì
A me la musica ha cambiato la vita
ed è la cosa più bella che ho
e qualche volta lascio andaere le dita
per le strade del mondo e dentro di me
A me la musica ha cambiato al vita
e la vita ha cambiato me
e quando mi sento perso
mi butto addosso
mi verso una porsione d'amore
preparata da qualche stregone chissà
mandato da te
ed è Scirocco ccaldo come
la gente d'Africa
che vive quì ed è Scirocco
mitico da costa a costa
e mentre sono qui
se potessi controllare il tempo
se potessi dare una direzione al vento
E mi parla di te mi parla di te
questo vento
caldo dell'Africa Africa
E sto pensando a te
sto pensando a te questa sera magica,
magica
Prova con un mazzo di
prova con un mazzo di rose
vedrai che cambieranno si
vedrai che cambieranno le cose

Audace....
Lamento di Arianna
Lasciatemi morire!
Antonio il Verso
Lasciatemi morire (1619)
Lasciatemi morire
E chi volete voi chi mi conforte
In così dura sorte?
In così gran martìre?
Lasciatemi morire!
Remember....
The stable song
Gregory Alan Isakov
Remember when our songs were just like prayer
Like gospel hymns that you called in the air
Come down, come down sweet reverence
Unto my simple house and ring... and ring
Ring like silver, ring like gold
Ring out those ghosts on the Ohio
Ring like clear day wedding bells
Were we the belly of the beast, or the sword that fell?
We'll never tell
Come to me, clear and cold
On some sea
Watch the world spinning waves
Like that machine
Now I've been crazy, couldn't you tell?
I threw stones at the stars, but the whole sky fell
Now I'm covered up in straw, belly up on the table
Well I drank and sang, and I passed in the stable
That tall grass grows high and brown
Well I dragged you straight in the muddy ground
And you sent me back to where I roam
Well I cursed and I cried, but now I know
Now I know
And I ran back to that hollow again
The moon was just a sliver back then
And I ached for my heart like some tin man
When it came, oh it beat and it boiled and it rang
Oh, it's ringing
Ring like crazy, ring like hell
Turn me back into that wild haired gale
Ring like silver, ring like gold
Turn these diamonds straight back into coal
Turn these diamonds straight back into coal
Like gospel hymns that you called in the air
Come down, come down sweet reverence
Unto my simple house and ring... and ring
Ring like silver, ring like gold
Ring out those ghosts on the Ohio
Ring like clear day wedding bells
Were we the belly of the beast, or the sword that fell?
We'll never tell
Come to me, clear and cold
On some sea
Watch the world spinning waves
Like that machine
Now I've been crazy, couldn't you tell?
I threw stones at the stars, but the whole sky fell
Now I'm covered up in straw, belly up on the table
Well I drank and sang, and I passed in the stable
That tall grass grows high and brown
Well I dragged you straight in the muddy ground
And you sent me back to where I roam
Well I cursed and I cried, but now I know
Now I know
And I ran back to that hollow again
The moon was just a sliver back then
And I ached for my heart like some tin man
When it came, oh it beat and it boiled and it rang
Oh, it's ringing
Ring like crazy, ring like hell
Turn me back into that wild haired gale
Ring like silver, ring like gold
Turn these diamonds straight back into coal
Turn these diamonds straight back into coal
Sospirando...
That Moon Song
Gregory Alan Isakov
the tail lights burn red
they were hotter than hell
and i’ve been long gone couldn’t you tell
the smoke in the air
couldn’t hide my shame
saw it lit up on that silver screen
and ahh that full bellied moon she’s a shinin on me
yeah she pulls on this heart like she pulls on the sea
and you came on strong like some running wave
and your beauty left me broke and hungry
left me begging to the birds for a bone or an offering
left me saying nothin, nothin, like i always say
and ahh that full bellied moon she’s a shinin on me
yeah she pulls on this heart like she pulls on the sea
and those broken hearted lovers,
they got nothing on me
Per fortuna....
c'è la traduzione in inglese....
Piosenka księżycowa (Moon Song)
Varius Manx
PIOSENKA KSIĘŻYCOWA
Śpisz pięknie tak po kątach cisza gra
Szkoda słów resztę dopowie księżyc
Śpisz staram się oddychać szeptem
Pościel jeszcze pachnie ogniem naszych ciał
Kiedyś znajdę dla nas dom z wielkim oknem na świat
Znowu zaczniesz ufać mi nie pozwolę ci się bać
Kiedyś wszystkie czarne dni obrócimy w dobry żart
Znowu będziesz ufał mi... Teraz śpij...
Wiem dobrze wiem potrafię ranić tak jak nikt
Przykro mi, nie wiem, co robić, gdy płaczesz
Już nie śmiejesz się jak kiedyś wszystko jest inaczej
Kolejny raz proszę cię o ostatnią szansę
Kiedyś znajdę dla nas dom z wielkim oknem na świat
Znowu będziesz ufał mi nie pozwolę ci się bać
Kiedyś wszystkie czarne dni obrócimy w dobry żart
Znowu będziesz ufał mi... Teraz śpij...
Tak pięknie...
English translation:
Varius Manx - Moon Song
You sleep so beautifully
Silence's playing 'rund the corners
nevermind
The moon will say the rest
you sleep
I try to breath whispering
the bedding still smells
with the fire of our bodies
Someday I'll find us a home
with a huge window at the world
You'll start to trust me again
I won't let you be afraid
Someday all the black days
we'll turn into a good joke
You'll start to trust me again
and now go sleep...
I know, I know it very well-
I can hurt as nobody can
I'm sorry
I don't know what to do when you cry
You don't laugh as in the past any more
everything is different
One more time
I'm begging you for the last chance
Someday I'll find us a home
with a huge window at the world
You'll start to trust me again
I won't let you be afraid
Someday all the black days
we'll turn into a good joke
You'll start to trust me again
and now go sleep..
Forse sì...
forse no....
That I would be good
Alanis Morissette
That I would be good
Even if I did nothing
That I would be good
Even if I got the thumbs down
That I would be good
If I got and stayed sick
That I would be good
Even if I gained 10 pounds
That I would be fine
Even if I went bankrupt
That I would be good
If I lost my hair and my youth
That I would be great
If I was no longer queen
That I would be grand
If I was not all knowing
That I would be loved
Even when I numb myself
That I would be good
Even when I am overwhelmed
That I would be loved
Even when I was fuming
That I would be good
Even if I was clingy
That I would be good
Even if I lost sanity
That I would be good
Whether with or without you

Smoke....
And Ashes
Tracy Chapman
I'd heard rumors and I'd heard talk
About the trail you'd left of broken hearts
About the sea of tears too wide to cross
But a little bad press has never scared me off
So I burned a path to figure out
How to get me some of what you got
I've got a red hot heart
If the talk is true your's is the same
And we should be together
And let our passions fan love's flame
When I looked for you I almost passed you by
You were so cool and calm I thought my friends had lied
But I thought so much reserve must make you wild inside
It was there and then that I knew I had to get some of what you got
I've got a red hot heart
If the talk is true your's is the same
And we should be together
And let our passions fan love's flame
I thought I'd won your heart when I held you hand in mine
I thought it was true love the way we complemented each other
But my right is your wrong
And when you're right then I'm left with nothing
Your light and your heat have all been spent
Leaving only smoke and ashes
Only smoke and ashes baby
I've got a red hot heart
Any your heart's as blue as the blood in your veins
I say there's fire down below
You say it's only smoke and ashes baby
I'm crying all the time
Salty stinging tears
And mourning for the past carbon-dated years
But knowing now for certain that you were always right
Because if a breeze could blow you out of my life
It's only smoke and ashes baby
Only smoke and ashes baby
I've got a red hot heart
And your heart's as blue as the blood in your veins
I say there's fire down below
You say it's only smoke and ashes baby
I was blinded by devotion
My unwavering love for you
So blinded that I thought all your lies were true
But now I know for certain since you've gone away
It was just a smoldering fire I mistook for a blaze
Only smoke and ashes baby
I've got a red hot heart
And your heart's as blue as the blood in your veins
I say there's fire down below
You say it's only smoke and ashes baby
Only smoke and ashes baby, baby ...
